Sung, Young Whan Department of Cultural Industry (Skin Care and Obesity Management Major) Graduate School of Cultural Industry SungShin Women's University

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of abdominal meridian massage with combination including capsaicin upon body composition and temperature of abdominal skin for adult obesity women. The subjects were twenty-four adult women with abdominal obesity. Twelve women were assigned to experiment group, twelve women to control group. The data collection and treatments were performed from February, 8th to March, 22nd, 2011. The subjects participated in abdominal meridian massage for 6 weeks. The experiment group was conducted to do abdominal meridian massage with combination including capsaicin. The control group was conducted to do abdominal meridian massage with massage cream for 2 times in a week. The subjects' body compositions were measured with InBody 230 impedence body fat instrument and the subjects' body size was measured with a ruler. The temperature of abdominal skin was measured with TES 1300 THERMOMETER(Taiwan). SPSS WIN 14.0 program was used for the statistical processing of this study. Frequency analysis was conducted to examine the group characteristic of respondents. Two-way repeated measures ANOVA method was used to examine the group difference, paired t-test was used to investigate the difference before and after the experiment by group. The results of this study were as follows : Hypothesis 1: Experiment group which was conducted to do abdominal meridian massage with combination including capsaicin showed bigger tendency of decrease than control group in change of weight, body mass index, fat mass and fat ratio. The average weight decreased significantly by 2.45kg(3.8%) from the pretest level of 64.02kg to 61.57kg and the average BMI decreased significantly by 5.1% from the pretest level of 25.57 to 24.26 in experiment group. Hypothesis 2: Experiment group which was conducted to do abdominal meridian massage with combination including capsaicin showed bigger tendency of decrease than control group in change of upper-waist, middle-waist, lower-waist and WHR. The average upper-waist decreased significantly by 3.25cm(4.9%) from the pretest level of 86.45cm to 83.20cm and middle-waist decreased by 3.4cm(3.7%) in experiment group. Hypothesis 3: Experiment group which was conducted to do abdominal meridian massage with combination including capsaicin showed significant difference than control group in change of temperature of abdominal skin by 9.39% from the pretest level of 30.33℃ to 33.18℃. Therefore, it is concluded that the abdominal massage with combination including capsaicin had a positive effect on adult obesity women's body composition, waist circumferences and the temperature of abdominal skin and it can be applied as a nursing intervention to decrease the abdominal obesity.
